standalone know about Bob?
One thought: PHP gets the info and sends it to the download server via a
POST action to a CGI on the download server. The download server's CGI
parses the parameters and writes the info to a file or database. When
the standalone launches on a user's machine, it does a "get URL" of the
CGI on the download server, which looks up the data and returns it.
I left out something. You need some kind of identifying info so that you
know who to look up. So unless you require a registration, where they
enter their name on both the server and into your standalone, this
method won't work. :(
Do you really need to tie each copy to a specific user? Maybe just
knowing that Bob referred 10 people and another server referred 40 is
enough?
